Brooke Shields: 'View' Keeps Asking Me Back To Guest Host

Brooke Shields told "Today" on Tuesday that she has not received a formal offer from "The View," but that the show keeps asking her back to guest-host.

Shields is rumored to be one of the frontrunners to replace Joy Behar, who is leaving this summer. She has guest-hosted the show numerous times.

When Hoda Kotb and Kathie Lee Gifford asked Shields to clear up rumors surrounding a possible role at "The View," Shields said: "I have hosted many times and I've hosted recently and they keep asking me back to host. There's been no formal offer... it's really been a rumor. They haven't asked."

Last month, a source told People magazine that people at the show "love her and she enjoys it." Ali Wentworth, a comedian and the wife of ABC News' George Stephanopoulos, is another contender for the job.

THE VIEW - The panel is now complete. Rosie Perez and Nicolle Wallace are the new co-hosts of 'The View' joining moderator Whoopi Goldberg and Rosie ODonnell. The new season will be unlike any in recent history and premieres live on MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 15 (11:00 a.m. - 12:00 noon, ET) on the ABC Television Network.
